        http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/sysinternals/bb897434[^] I know what you're thinking. Another damn screen magnifier. Well, yes, Zoomit does that, but it was actually designed to assist in PC-driven presentations. With the draw tool, you can highlight areas on the screen. When in draw mode, you can enter typing mode, and the text will appear on the screen (nice big text). The break timer shows a big countdown clock. Zoomit was written by Mark Russinovich, one of the founders of Sysinternals.

        Best wishes, Hans

        Very nice tool except for a small 'bug'. When running multiple monitors it appears it will only zoom a section of the second screen (if the second screen is larger than the primary screen). And even weirder when in a RDP session on the second screen it doesn't want to zoom at all but on the primary screen it does (when in a RDP session there). Other than that very nice and I'll be using it at home (have a small wireless keyboard to type stuff on my big screen tv but the distance from the tv prevents me from using it fully since I can't see what I'm typing ;p )
